Doyle Residence:

As the door bell rings, Tommy walks to the door and opens it.

Annie: Hi, Tommy.

Tommy: Hi, come on in; we're making a Jack-O-Lantern.

Annie: Oh.

Lindsey: I wanna watch tv.

Nick: Annie, we're in here.

As Tommy and Lindsey sit down and watch the movie, Annie walks to the kitchen to see Laurie and Nick with their sleeves up and taking out the insides of the pumpkin.

Laurie: (Sarcastic) Oh, fancy.

Annie: This has not been my night.

Nick: Sure doesn't look like it. What happened?

Annie: I spilled butter all over my clothes, they're in the wash, and I got stuck in the window.

Laurie and Nick laugh at her.

Annie: Hey, shut up.

Nick: Sorry.

Annie: Alright, I'm on my way to pick up Paul.

Laurie: Wait a minute... I thought Paul was grounded.

Annie: He was, ol jerko found a way to sneak out. Listen, I call you guys in an hour, okay? So have fun, but not too much fun. I'm looking at you both.

The two of them roll their eyes at Annie as she walks out.

Nick: Now, let's get back to carving this Jack-O-Lantern. Shall we, mi'lady?

Laurie: We shall, mi'lord.

They smile as they walk back to the kitchen.

Outside:

Annie whistles as she walks behind the Wallace house and walks to the garage to get in her car.

Annie: (Singing) My Paul, I give you all. (She opens the door only to see that it's locked) No Keys, but please my heart.

She leaves the garage to get her keys from inside while whistling. She walks to the front of the house and walks inside while whistling and searches for her keys. She grabs her purse and searches it, finding her keys.

Annie: Oh Paul, I can no longer stall (She grabs the comb from the purse and uses it in her hair to make herself look good for Paul)

She walks back to the garage and forgets that the door was locked before opening it without using the key to unlock it. She gets in the car and stops whistling as she notices the windshield has been fogged up and wonders how that happened. As she tries to wipe away the fog, Michael sits up from the backseat and grabs Annie by the neck and strangles her. She gasps and yells as she tries to get free from his grasp. She honks the horn a couple times to get someone's attention, but it doesn't do anything. She does it again, but it still doesn't do anything. Michael keeps strangling her before grabbing his knife and cutting her throat. She stops moving as he removes his hands and she falls slowly onto the door and hits the horn. The car honks loudly in the garage.

Doyle Residence:

Tommy and Lindsey sit down on the couch as they watch a movie. Tommy looks at Lindsey, who has her eyes glued to the tv, and he climbs over the side of the couch and sneaks behind it before going behind the curtain.

Tommy: (Whispers) Lindsey! Lindsey!

Lindsey: (stands up and looks around) Where are you?

Tommy looks out the window and notices across the street, Michael carrying Annie's body as he walks to the front door and kicks it open before walking inside.
